Summary

Opioids are commonly used in analgesic treatment of severe patients. Opioid receptors are divided into five types:,,, and.1 receptor is associated with analgesia and sedation above the spinal cord, while 2 receptor is associated with respiratory depression, bradycardia, euphoric sensation, pruritus, pupil contraction, inhibition of intestinal motility and other side effects.Κ receptors play a role of spinal analgesia, sedation and diuresis.Δ receptors associated with spinal analgesia and respiratory inhibition and regulate the activity of mu receptor.

Different opioid analgesics have different binding degree with different receptors, which determines the difference of analgesic effect and side effect, especially respiratory central inhibitory effect.Remifentanil is a pure opioid receptor agonist, mainly ACTS on the first and second receptors, binding to the second receptor is weak, in the analgesic, sedative effect, with opioid respiratory depression and hypotensive side effects, respiratory depression is dose dependent.Nalbuphine hydrochloride has strong analgesic effect, quick effect and long time by stimulating receptor, and has partial antagonistic effect on the receptor, so the incidence of respiratory depression is low in theory.The metabolic pathways of different opioids are also different. In particular, severe patients often need continuous opioid infusion for analgesia, which may lead to the accumulation of drugs and further affect the respiratory center.In the process of continuous application of different types of opioids to the analgesia of severe patients, the presence of respiratory center inhibition, the degree of inhibition and the dose-effect relationship have not been quantitatively evaluated.
